Since joining Mindjet, I must have created several thousand maps. Planning maps, strategy maps, project maps, meeting maps, idea maps, demo maps, presentation maps…You name it and there’s a good chance that I’ve mapped it.
With all my maps, it was often hard to find the right map when I needed to find information for my current project. Now, MindManager 8 offers some great new features that make searching for maps & map content much easier.
Search is Always Visible
A new persistent search field has been added to the MindManager ribbon bar to make searching for content in other maps faster and easier.
The search field is also located in your Mindjet Connect Workspace Manager’s ribbon.

Since I live and breathe in MindManager, I’m excited to share a little about our new Web Services map part.
What are Web Services?
I’ll try to answer that by showing you. First, take any of your maps and select a topic.
Now, go to your MindManager 8 map parts, open your web services folder to click on the ‘Google’ web service. A dialog window will appear to ask you how many search results you’d like to see. I selected 5.

MindManager persforms your search and the results now appear in your map. Hover over the notes icon to get a quick idea of the content contained in each link or click the links to view the results in the new integrated web browser.
According to Wikipedia, Web Services is defined as “a software system designed to support interoperable machine-to-machine interaction over a network". Hopefully, seeing it work is easier to understand than the definition itself.
